Yeah, when a slot’s playstyle is radically different either concurrently or subsequently, chances are, that slot is a different alignment - scum, especially if it’s for the worse.In post 1223, Alchemist21 wrote:

Not that I expect you'd claim ascetic or BP or 'Space' or anything of the like if you're scum.
I'm just trying to figure this out.

I'm honestly not super Up to Date with Starcraft having only played a few games of SC2, so I don't know if that will reveal ground or air unit. If it would, I guess I'd be willing to accept that.

The less info scum have about me, the better.
@STW: I've been paying attention to the thread and responding to other things, too.
I'm sorry that I'm such a headache for you. Please focus outside of me for now, then?
Unless we have a legitimately better candidate for lynch that I actually agree on, I'm going to keep my vote stuck where it is.
It's baffling that my kill failed on you and I'm trying my best not to get really pissed off that I outted myself this early and will die without having done anything.
@AlmostChara: There are definitely units in Starcraft that can only affect air or ground. The Protoss Reaver, for instance, can shoot out scarab bombs across the ground, but it can't hit flying units. Many of the zerg ground units only have claws and can't attack air units. Shuttles that fly can pick up and transport ground units. So on and so forth.

The fact you can't engage with me about why we shouldn't scumread you or should townread you had me baffled.
We can post game why I'm not into reading myself in the thread. It basically boils down to the wifom/not wifom discussion you're in the middle of and my having no interest in having those types of discussions
I'm trying to parse how you came to the conclusion that it's scum indicative for us to be scumreading you and pushing you just because the worst and you have history. I still do not understand your rationale here.
If you think TW should >rand be townreading you, we definitely need a better metric against which to measure your towntells, because it means what we are doing at the moment is on the wrong track.
This conversation is pretty important. If you do need to back out of it forwe understand but also please try to see that from our perspective, that leaves you joining out wagon late into its formation for almost exactly no reason...holistic playstyle/meta reasons
TW actually used the phrase “holistic playstyle/meta reasons” here, not “holistical reads”. I looked into this, and TW using phrases like “holistic meta” or “holistic read” is definitely not a towntell for him. In fact, he used the phrase “holistic meta” in the first Starcraft game (as scum) four different times. I searched TW’s posts for the phrases “holistic meta”, “holistic read”, “holistic play”, and “holistic playstyle” as this is what I found:In post 591, pinturicchio wrote:

By the way @duck, why scumreading us? Felt like it came out of nowhere.

Mewtaph has asked Xtoxm the same question a lot of us have already asked him (which townreads gave him pause)
I think he's already answered that question really well, and I think his answer was town indicative. Mewtaph has ignored his reads and later contribution and comments about playstyle anxiety leading him to freak out about the early townreads. Follow his reads and it's probably pretty clear that he had his own takes, but the Big Bad Townblock was too much for him to like.
Mewtaph thinks he's a mislynch / has not noticed that Xtoxm's initial freak-out about the townreadspam actually kinda checks out, so shades him for not responding and votes him over ellitell
I ask Mewtaph to back the ellitell up with an actual scumcase. He cites the very early part of Xtoxm's contributions. I ask him to go back to his later iso and show me which of Xtoxm's posts are making him still feel that way
Nancy randomly charge-tackles me to the ground and Mewtaph stands there watching us and acting all surprised that I asked him to back up this read.
Like idfk he hasn't warlocked Nancy, she did it of her own volition but I'm fucking done if I'm being shaded for asking someone who's done sweet fuck all to back up a horseshit holistic meta tell with an actual scumcase on a slot I'm townreading

No results came up for “holistic play” or “holistic playstyle” when searching TW’s posts.
Granted, TW has used phrases like “holistic read” or something along those lines as town, but in this game the exact phrase he used in post 588 was “holistic playstyle/meta reasons”, and he has used “holistic meta” four times as much as scum than he has as town. In any case, TW frequently uses the word “holistic” in general (there are 41 results for just the word “holistic” when searching TW’s posts), so at best him using the phrase “holistic playstyle/meta reasons” is NAI for him. So@Pinturicchio, why were you so quick to label this as a “towntell” for TW when it clearly isn’t?
And@The Worst, what are your thoughts on Pinturicchio incorrectly applying this as a “towntell” for your slot?

even if STW is scum i think the likelihood of the shot failing or being stopped somehow due to how far away you two are on the list is very high.
so that leaves them being your scumread. you've been trying all day and the lynch isn't happening right now.

...idk? I don't like that kind of read anyway (it's angleshooty and stupid) so I mostly ignored it. I just like the concept of retaining a level of holism wrt gamestate & how myself and others are viewing the game so I didn't think it was AI either but like I don't pay enough attention to know if I do it more as one alignment or the otherIn post 1236, Michael Scott wrote:And @The Worst, what are your thoughts on Pinturicchio incorrectly applying this as a “towntell” for your slot? - Shoshin the worst
